Alamein FC - Skills Acquisition Program (SAP)

What is the SAP? A key aspect of the Football Federation Australia National Curriculum is the implementation of a Skill Acquisition Phase program (SAP) to perfect and accelerate the skill development of both Boys and Girls at the critical ages of 9 to 13. This age group is universally acknowledged to be the optimal mental and physical phase in which children learn motor skills.The most critical aspect of the SAP is the training environment created by the club and coaches as well as the training plan and sessions provided by the Head of Skill Acquisition at FFV. Implemented appropriately, players should experience a positive, fun and engaging session. After working on specific skills and principles a Gala Day is generally conducted to allow players the opportunity to apply these things against other SAP clubs, generally occurring after each 8 week cycle/training block.

Alamein SAP program will commence on Monday 24th April. Program runs through to the week commencing 4th September 2017 (36 Sessions total). There will also be two Gala days against other SAP Clubs (Date and Venue TBA)
